When I watch the local news, I can't quite keep up with the news-y aspect of the whole thing. Confused? Ben Hoffman gets me. His gorgeously crafted ditties cover the more (dare I say) interesting aspects of local news. Fat people from the neck down? Yes! Sliding cars? Of course. Gator news? Why not! These recurring local news tropes get just as much coverage as your usual serial killers and epidemics, so why not string them all together into a catchy ditty? My new favorite has to be 'Deer on the Loose', because there's nothing more terrifying (or newsworthy!) than these crazy four-legged dandelion-eaters.
